Coming off PPIs for endoscopy
I was scheduled for an
endoscopy
today, mainly to rule out any other causes of my worsening dysphagia and reflux. It was booked at short notice so I phoned them up beforehand as I could not come off PPIS for 2 weeks prior as requested as it was only a week away when the booking was made.

Fundic gland polyps
I recently had an upper
endoscopy
in an effort to find out why. The gastroenterologist that did my procedure told me I had many small polyps, mostly in the fundus, but a few in the body of the stomach. Many biopsies were taken.

Can it be PA when the Dr says no and the results are inconclusive?

In agony with reflux I think
I have had a
endoscopy
12 months ago all normal and now I'm seeing the gastroenterologists on Wednesday I can't wait as I'm in agony. I was 7 stone 13 before the accident and in now 6stone 9 and trying to eat with this problem is not helping me to put on weight.

Endoscopy
Hi all, Who here has had an
endoscopy
? No previous treatment has worked (even a small amount) and over the years my IBS has really gotten so much worse. I’ve finally been referred to have an
endoscopy
which I’m really relieved about but not sure what to expect and what they could be looking for?

Granulomatous and IBS or IBD
Hi my 9 year old daughter had a colonoscopy and
endoscopy
carried. The biospys have been returned abnormal. Her consultant said it's is Granulomas. She was then sent for an MRI which has come back clear. Has anyone else heard off or have Granulomas? I was wondering if it is a side effect of IBS?

Doctors can’t find anything/no diagnosis. Reaching out...
Hi all, I read the site daily but rarely post. Asking if anyone has had similar situation as me and can offer any advice... Raised alt/ast (40-60) range for over a year now. Been blood tested for every disease, had ultra sound, mri/mra, endoscopic ultrasound, and biopsy...all completely normal. Alt

Pancreas causing B12 deficiency?
Endoscopy
showed gastritis, oesephagitis and a hiatus hernia. Omezaprole was prescribed for two months. That course has finished. Stool sample showed low faecal elastase (124 or so). A reaction to alcohol has worsened in past six months coinciding with worsening bowel issues.

APS & Severe Diverticulosis? or anything similar
They then intend to do an
endoscopy
in a few weeks after I've had some recuperation time as I'm very weak and run down after this event. If anyone has had similar issues or read of similar cases would be grateful to hear about it.

Help please. Immense pain and discomfort
Had
endoscopy
, CT and a small ultrasound which didn't even check where my pains are ?? Due colonoscopy in a few days if I can manage the solutions as I'm so sore. Can't sleep more than 4 hours a day as pain is so bad. Doctors put me on gabapentin and paracetamol but it barely touches the pain.
